WHAT WERE BUILDING
THE INFRASTRUCTURE FOR AN EDUCATIONAL PIPELINE COMPOSED OF:
INFLOWS
THOROUGHFARE
OUTFLOWS
INTERESTED AND QUALIFIED PARTIES ARE FOUND THROUGH INDIVIDUAL APPLICATION AND
PARTNERSHIPS WITH SCHOOLS AND SPECIAL EDUCATION CENTERS. WE FILTER APPLICANTS
ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO ENSURE NOT IF THEY'RE A GOOD FIT FOR US, BUT MOST
IMPORTANTLY, THAT WE'RE A GOOD FIT FOR THEM.
ONCE ACCEPTED INTO THE PROGRAM STUDENTS PARTAKE IN A SPECIALLY DESIGNED
CURRICULUM SUITED TO THEIR LEARNING STYLES AND NEEDS. IN OUR PROGRAM, STUDENTS WILL
INTERACT WITH TRAINED EXPERTS TO ENSURE THEIR LEARNING NEEDS ARE MET, AND WILL BE
EMPOWERED TO LEARN HOW TO CODE IN A FUN, HEALTHY, AND PREPARATORY ENVIRONMENT
FOCUSED ON SKILL ACQUISITION AND EXPRESSION.
ONCE FINISHED WITH THE PROGRAM, GRADUATES ARE CONTINUALLY SUPPORTED, BEING
GIVEN CONTINUED ACCESS TO OUR SERVICES, SUPPORT TEAM, AND ALUMNI NETWORK,
WHILE BEING AIDED IN CONNECTING TO THE PROPER POSITIONS BY OUR TEAM.
AUTISM CODES
SPECIFIC FINDINGS
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicate that approximately 1 in 68
American children are on the autism spectrum. More specifically, its estimated that 1 in 42 boys,
and 1 in 189 girls are diagnosed with autism in the US.
There will be 1 million more computing jobs than students over the next 10 years (adding up to
$500 billion in salaries). Currently, computing occupations are among the highest-paying jobs for
new graduates. Yet fewer than 3% of college students graduate with a degree in computer science.
Under DSM-IV-TR, autism was characterized by delays or abnormal functioning before the age of
three years in one or more of the following domains: (1) social interaction; (2) communication;
and (3) restricted, repetitive, and stereotyped patterns of behavior, interests, and activities.
Children and adolescents with ASD had average medical expenditures that exceeded those without
ASD by $4,110$6,200 per year. On average, medical expenditures for children and adolescents with
ASD were 4.16.2 times greater than for those without ASD. Differences in median expenditures
ranged from $2,240 to $3,360 per year with median expenditures 8.49.5 times greater.
